NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

An additional sum of $2,686 sent in by alumni from all parts of the country swelled the total of $13,044, which was Harvard's share of the collections taken at the last three football games this season, to $15,730 in all, that will be divided equally between the Boston and Cambridge committees for unemployment.

A check for $7,865 has already been turned over to E. H. Hall, chairman of the Cambridge Unemployment Relief committee, and one for an equal amount will be sent to one or more organizations in Boston, which will be designated by President Lowell.

The president of Dartmouth, Holy Cross, and Yale have received checks for distribution to the unemployed as they see fit, the sums representing in each case half of the collection taken up in the Stadium when their respective teams played Harvard. The checks were as follows: to President E. M. Hopkins of Dartmouth, $2,959; to the Reverend Father J. M. Fox, president of Holy Cross, $3,473: and to President J. R. Angell of Yale, $6.612. The total amount collected by the Student Council at the games was $26,088.
